Hikvision IP Camera Unauthenticated Command Injection
Description
This module exploits an unauthenticated command injection in a variety of Hikvision IP cameras (CVE-2021-36260). The module inserts a command into an XML payload used with an HTTP PUT request sent to the `/SDK/webLanguage` endpoint, resulting in command execution as the `root` user. This module specifically attempts to exploit the blind variant of the attack. The module was successfully tested against an HWI-B120-D/W using firmware V5.5.101 build 200408. It was also tested against an unaffected DS-2CD2142FWD-I using firmware V5.5.0 build 170725. Please see the Hikvision advisory for a full list of affected products.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
